Un-Leashed

Having our happy little puppy has been one of the most wonderful things! Having all of the mess that comes with a puppy has been... a little less wonderful. One of the worst offenders is the small table in our kitchen:

With the food, the treats, the puppy pills, the plants, and the leashes the table was just overrun and completely useless for any kitchen prep work. I decided that some of the clutter had to be organized, so I bought a wall hook from Home Depot and installed it near our back door as a leash hanger.

Be sure to use the leashes (or whatnot) on the hanger to help place the hanger before you screw it in

Now our leashes are now in one handy, organized spot for quick access on our way out the door, and the table is much much clearer.

And it's ready to use for some tasty recipes :) Hopefully the first in many organization projects!

LOL!! This is my life. I've got two furry little ones tearing through my house.

I love the idea of the hook by the door for the leashes. That ought to help with the clutter. Now, if I can just get them to stop bringing sticks and dirt into the house. Oh well, I love the little buggers despite their puppy messes! :)

WHAT I'M READING

I started this blog as a way for friends and family to keep in touch while I traveled abroad. Now, I hope it gives you ideas to try for crafts, food, home, and garden. I love to dabble, and I try not to buy when I can DIY!
